Do you have a copy of this photo in your attic?

My uncle shared this photo with the family recently. His big brother gave it to him. That's all I know.

You're right. That's a pretty lame blog post. But hear me out.

I'm wondering if you have a photo that looks like this in your collection. Maybe you got a link to my blog because you show up as a DNA match and I'm grasping at straws to figure out our connection.

We have whole bunches of love in our family but mostly half relationships. So this photo may be a common ancestor of my mother's half brothers and her father's half brothers (but no relation to my half brothers, wonderful as they are).

My suspicions:
#1  Tom Kinney 17 February 1853 – 9 August 1938  (FamilySearch ID LCJQ-4DV) or a close family member.

#2 The Mystery Father of Guy Earl Habercom Chubb (that's where you come in).
Guy's dates are 18 January 1895 – 28 February 1988 (FamilySearch ID K4F9-R9N)

Questions for those of you who wonder if you might also be related to this fine fellow:

#1 Are there Husks in your family line? (I seem to remember someone mentioning that name as a possibility if Mr. Chubb didn't pan out at Guy's father).

#2 Who in your family tree lived near Eglon, West Virginia (in Preston, County) in 1895? Any males of the right age to be a daddy (15-80?)


Here's a photo of Guy Sr. taken around 1918 when he was about 23 years old. You decide what resemblance you see.

And for good measure, here's a photo of Guy as a little boy with his mother Ann Amelia and his sister (half sister?) Helen.
